About this gift
Sag Persian Raisin Aragh offers a remarkable revival of a deeply countercultural spirit. This unique distillate traces its origins to Iran, where Aragh Sagi-a traditional raisin spirit-thrives in underground circles due to a decades-long ban. Sag bridges that distance, bringing this compelling history to a wider audience by crafting its spirit in small batches in Yonkers, New York.
The process begins with the finest natural, sun-dried Thompson seedless raisins sourced from California. Sag honors tradition by distilling the fermented fruit exclusively in small copper stills, ensuring purity and complexity. Crucially, nothing is added; the spirit's flavor profile is a direct expression of the pure raisin base. On the palate, this Aragh delivers a subtle, welcome kick, followed by a remarkably smooth, authentic raisin finish.
Sag offers a compelling differentiation from conventional base spirits. Its unique character makes it an amazing, exotic replacement for traditional vodka in cocktails, providing an unexpected depth.
